Answer 1. They are stronger, more stubborn, and clumsier than horses. if you want something for pack, mules would be better. If you want something to ride, horses are better.

Answer 2. They are better than horses at all sports and for farm work. They train well (there are quite a few in the USA doing competitive dressage, for example), are about 50% stronger than horses and require about 40% less food. They are also highly intelligent, their IQs being in the same range as that of the most intelligent dogs.
